A new item in the latest update of Minecraft Trails & Tales is the Decorated Pot. Different to flower pots these are larger and require four Pottery Sherd's to be made, they also make for a really great decorative item for bases.
These Pottery Sherds are found in the blocks 'suspicious sand' or 'suspicious gravel' that are found in Trial Ruins, Ocean Ruins, Desert Temples and Desert Wells. Gamers don't need four of the same sherds, they can mix and match to make a unique pot with four different sides. Here is every Pottery Sherd in the game and where to find them.
20 Angler Pottery Sherd
This Pottery Sherd is based off of a fishing rod, and it would look perfect to represent buckets of fish in a dock or a fishing cabin. To find this one, gamers will need to search in warm ocean ruins and look our for that suspicious gravel.
Using the brush tool to carefully break down the gravel, do not use a shovel as both the block and the item inside of it will be destroyed also. Not only can the player find pottery sherds in suspicious blocks they can also find gems like emeralds and diamonds and also the new Armor Trims.
19 Archer Pottery Sherd
The Archer is a nod to the bow and arrows of Minecraft and this is represented on this Pottery Sherd and ergo the Decorated Pot that could be made from it. Bow and arrows are some of the signature weapons in the game, so it is no surprise that Mojang have given them a pot.
To find this Sherd the Desert Temple is where to look, they all around the large structure so chances are one of these will pop up in the suspicious sand. Desert temples are tough to traverse as they are booby trapped with TNT and evil mobs who lurk from within.
18 Arms Up Pottery Sherd
The Arms Up sherd do not really represent anything in the game, it is a man with his arms up, not much else to say. It is nice to have such a wide variety of these pots as they all make for great decoration pieces. It may be used as a decoration piece to represent a happy environment.
In order to find this one, gamers will have to search in Desert Wells, they spawn in Desert biomes or in Desert Villages. They are fairly common, so it should be easy to locate this sherd.
17 Blade Pottery Sherd
It will look so cool as a decoration piece in an armory, the Blade Pottery Sherd is of course a sword, and it can be found in Cold Ocean Ruins. Maybe lost from an ancient battleship that has sunken to the seafloor and lost in time.
To create a Decorated Pot for the Blade put four of the Sherd's into a crafting table and the pot will be made. Pairing this one with the Archer will create a lovely weapon themed decoration for an armory.
16 Brewer Pottery Sherd
The Brewer is a based off of a potion bottle, it will look the part in a brewing lab as a display piece. Gamers could imagine that this pot holds some potions inside of it, however nothing can be held inside these pots as they are purely decor.
If the player wants to get their hands on Brewer then they should search in Desert Wells, brushing that suspicious sand and the treasure will hopefully reveal itself. Wells make sense for this one as broken pots may have been thrown down the well and lost beneath the waters below.
15 Burn Pottery Sherd
For the gamers who have a fiery side, the Burn Pottery Sherd makes reference to fire a common theme in Minecraft. Fire is used in campfires, furnace and of course in the Nether. This will be perfect for a base in the Nether, or as a pot that represents some flammable liquid, it will look the part in a lab build.
This is found in the latest structure in Minecraft, the Trail Ruins. These are mud and terracotta structures that are meant to be ancient villages, that have been worn down and lost in time.
14 Danger Pottery Sherd
There wouldn't be a new decoration piece without representing the most iconic creature in the game, the Creeper. This is exactly what the Danger Sherd and Pot do.
To find this Creeper Sherd gamers will need to search in Trail Ruins, brush that suspicious sand and this treasure may reveal itself. Look out for creepers when doing so or face a very ironic end. Pairing this one with the Burn pot will be perfect to represent some sort of explosion. The pot could also be used as a way to alert other players to creeper attacks.
13 Explorer Pottery Sherd
The Explorer Pottery Sherd represents a map, it will not look out of place as part of the furniture in a map room. Cold Ocean Ruins are the location to search in order to obtain this sherd and turn it into a Decorated Pot.

12 Friend Pottery Sherd
It may be hard to work out, but this Sherd is based off a Villager, a gentile remind that Villagers are friends and must not be killed. When created into a pot this will look perfect in a village or even a villager breeder.
But first gamers will need to locate the Sherd, and they can do so in Trail Ruins, fitting as they are meant to represent ancient villages. There are a lot of different villagers inside the game and this one just represents the basic design.
11 Heart Pottery Sherd
This one isn't really anything to do with Minecraft, but it is a heart, a symbol of love and affection. Everyone's world could do with some love, and it could be in the form of this Pottery Sherd. It may represent lives on the game, so make sure that they are nice and healthy when searching for these sherds.
